Well as many of you have several doubts regarding the competition… let me just give an introduction of the PHASE:1
(UNFORTUNATELY… I AM CONFUSED ABOUT THE NEW TELLYUPDATES… SO NOT ABLE TO COMMENT… EXTREMELY SORRY…)
AND.. YES… all serial couples are accepted… I missed a few… sorry about that..
PHASE 1: Relay OS
1. Groups will be made based on the number of participants and NOT ACCORDING TO FANDOM. (It could be possible that in a lot all are of a same fandom.. probabilities are there… I will pick randomly.. and I do not know most of you.. and your choices..)
2. The OS couple will be given a name (non serial). I will be giving the names only. Character sketch of that character can be of your choice.
(Eg. I give a pair.. Rahul and Simran.
Writers’ duty is to describe Rahul and Simran’s looks and character.. as in whether they are angry or loving or kind or arrogant etc.)
3. Each group gets a separate pair and story line.
4. Each participant can only add 500 words to the story. (Word count depends on number of participant.)
5. Along side selecting the best 2 group stories, 2 participants will be selected as special. This is based on their contribution to the relay story—-> the participant that will write something not only in proper grammar and good English but will also give the story a leading point will be selected as special. He/ she gets several benefits..
A) extra 2 days to submit their phase 2 and 3 OS.
B) extra 5 marks to their OS.
C) they will be selected for phase 3 directly. (they can participate in phase 2 if they want…)
I know this is might sound difficult but I am sure You will all enjoy it..
6. Each participant has only one chance to add their words to the story they are given. This is only to see the passion and versatility of a writer. Please write carefully.
7. Each participant will be sent a message on their tellyupdates account,(I will be doing that myself.) With details of the story they will be writing.
Like, the 1st participant gets the starting, and character names. The 2nd participant gets the story that the 1st participant wrote. The 3rd participant gets what the 1st and 2nd participant wrote and so on. The last in the group will be informed about the fact the he / she will have to end the story.
Happy writing guys!!!!
THOSE WHO MESSAGED ME ABOUT BEING A JUDGE.. WELL FIRST OF ALL LET ME ASSURE YOU.. I WILL NOT DO ANY PARTIAL JUDGEMENT REAGRDING THIS CASE.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ANSWER THIS FOLLOWING 3 QUESTIONS.. SELECTED 5 WILL BE CHOSEN AS A JUDGE..
QUESTION:1: YOU ARE GIVEN A CHOICE BY LORD TO CHOOSE EITHER OF THE THREE PERSONS AS A FRIEND FOR LIFE. WHICH ONE WOULD YOU CHOOSE?
PERSON 1: HE/ SHE IS VERY RESERVED, KIND, WEALTHY, STRONG AND HANDSOME/ BEAUTIFUL.
PERSON 2: IS ENERGETIC, FREE SPIRITED, WELL TO DO FAMILY BACKGROUND, QUITE GOOD LOOKING, NOT AT ALL CONSERVATIVE.
PERSON 3: GOD FEARING, POOR, AND LOVES YOU DEARLY… HAS HAD A HORRIBLE PAST WHICH IS KIND OF UNACCEPTABLE BUT THAT IS WHAT MADE HIM/HER GOD FEARING.
QUESTION:2: IMAGINE…. WHO EVER YOU HAVE CHOSEN ABOVE, HAS NOW BECOME THE BEST THING OF YOUR LIFE.. YOU GUYS LITERALLY SHARE EVERYTHING… ONE FINE DAY YOU FIND THE PERSON DOING A GRAVE MISTAKE… WHAT DO YOU DO??? AND WHY???
QUESTION:3: IF A DEVIL BECOMES AN ANGEL. WOULD YOU RECONSIDER YOUR DECISION AND KEEP THIS DEVIL TURNED ANGEL AS YOUR FRIEND? WOULD IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU THAT TGIS ANGEL COULD BECOME A DEVIL AGAIN?
I know this questions have nothing to do with judging, but in a way they do. Each question is chosen to check your loyalty and dedication towards not only your profession but also your relations. I just want to see if you’re able to balance them both.
Thanks one and all!!!
Happy writing once again…
Still any doubt then comment please.

Oh my God…..I think I’ll soon fall in love with you…..
First things first, there is an option to go back to the earlier UI of TU. As soon as u open the TU homepage, there is are 2 options Modern n Classic. Classic is the older version.
Secondly, the questions are very creative and damn interesting….I’ll try to answer them ASAP.
Hats off to all the planning….the execution is going to require hell lot of time and energy. You are taking a lot of trouble on you girl…..but I would love to help….
Answer them through pm. And NOT in comments plz.
No fandom!!??
It’s bit confusing..but will still give a try
Hmmm…Getting interested phase by phase but you said you will make group and give couple name to authors well in that case how will people write on any couple they don’t even know about!!?? For example you give me Some couple name other then Shivika,Nivay or Gourikara, My wild guess, what will I be able to write on others serial other then IB and Ipkknd!! suppose I will manage also but how will it turned out to be with a total lack of knowledge on some show or couple or If I start a fiction on some other couple you will give me, how much it will be able to connect dots with its original show story line and their beloved couple by the audience who will vote for the story comparing it to the story written by creative teams of their respective story??!! Its your competition and you have all the rights to decide but think about my point once again… I may sound harsh when you are blooming a new type of dream. Ignore if you don’t like my suggestion as I am not calling for a fight or abusive languages on me…but give authors the serial and couple name they are interested for, I hope some of their dp will help you or ask your participant before creating group in which show they actually want to write….so I was saying group can also be formed based on fandom.
I just suggested dear, I am not in any competition… Take care and all the fantastic best to your adventitious competition..
Dear Aastha,
Thanks for your POV. But to clear your confusion, as I will be grouping randomly, it will be best to have a single pair names as all may not be of same fandom. You can imagine your favourite couple in a different name and write. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO WRITE ON ANY OTHER SERIAL. THE STORY STARTING THAT I WILL BE GIVING IS ENTIRELY MY OWN CREATIVE. So I hope you are not confused still. 🙂 if you still have questions.. kindly pm me. Hope you will be participating.
If I group according to fandom, most ppl can find out the fact as to who the writer is, and there will be a chance of partiality. Which I want to avoid.
This is just my POV.
Phase 2 and 3 will give you chance to write on your own favourite couple.. your own story.
And also, voting rules and how to submit will be updated in the next article. Hope you are now out of confusion.
I can understand dear but how can an Ishqbaaz fan write mich michi, Raita, khidkitod in other character imagining other couple as her Shivika, how can a person can write some other mother with the same passion and world of love the word “Ishimaa” held, it all will be very difficult the magic will not be created that way when the words I mentioned are very close to heart from our loving character..This is the matter of just star plus and there are other numerous channels and their hit pairs with amazing chemistry and special words . About me participating in your competition , you perhaps don’t know but my style of writing is a bit unusual then others and I may spoil the group-hard work of other authors. I am a total missfit for group work. Thank you
There is no harm in trying…and a writer can create anything.. according to me.. but that is your perspective.. i respect tht.. thanks for your valuable POV.
Sorry for poking my nose in between but I think Astha Di, you SHOULD participate. Your part might give a crazy turn to the plot and that is what creativity is all about.And Misfit?You’re no misfit,you’re unique in your own way. I really insist that you take part in this.
Well….u can go with the simple os comp…by the way…i would take part ..
Its bit confusing…pls pm me to clear ny doubts
I am there…but do we have to submit an article before writing the final? ? and how will be able to write on other serials…when we don’t know anything about them…??
The first phase is relay. Here I will be grouping you randomly, you may not be of a same fandom, hence I will just change the name of characters and give you story starting…All you have to do is, once you receive your story.. you will add only a few words(500 or less) to the given story. Your duty is to make the story better. You can imagine your favourite couples in a different name… 🙂 phase 1 will be judged by the judges… Voting rules will be mentioned in the next update.
Also you will be submitting your articles directly to me through emails. And if emailing is not convenient for you then you will have to patiently send them through pm on TU.
Hey ??? when do you plan to start this compitition? I really hope it’ll be after 30th of September ??? I have a really big exam. But no matter start when you like dear ??
UR competition is really really confusing pls write in easy form so people can underatand it nd wht the winner vl get after so much of hard work vl the winner vl get only appreciation from judges this is ridiculous !!!!!! If the winner is getting any prize then it vl be benefit otherwise no use of participating ir comp.goes above my head like rocket
It is not about what the winner will get… it is about your passion for writing… it is a way to experience fun while writing… knowing how you would have thought of a story and how it actually ended up… i tried my level best to explain it in simple english.
Further more explaination is sort of difficult.
Still I will say again for you.. THERE ARE 3 PHASES.
FORGET PHASE 2 AND 3.
LETS THINK ONLY ABOUT PHASE 1.
PHASE 1: IS A RELAY STORY.
Participant 1 starts the story and ends with her alloted number of words.
Participant 2 gets the incomplete story that participant 1 wrote(began). Participant 2 adds her portion of alloted words into the story.
Participant 3 gets the incomplete story left by participant 1 and 2. And she again adds hee allotted words in the story. It goes on until the last participant recieves the incomplete story that she has to complete with in her allotted words.
Each participant will be judged separately for their allotted words.from whic we will select top 2. And each story( written by a group) will be given an overall mark. The top 2 group stories will be selected. And the participants who wrote the stpries for the top 2 groups will get into phase 2.
Hope you have your doubts cleared now.
Totally agree with u sia.. its really a bit confusing.. and with no return.
Just an appreciations.
Yes khamoshi vl we get only appreciation thats not fair afters ouch of hard work writing wht we vl get is nothing i agree wht u said dessertqueen butttt stilll i hope u understand sryy not interested
The phases seem to be damm awesome
